Dad's new Toy!!

[Tucks69]

My Dad just turned 67 a couple weeks ago. Yesterday we went to Rockingham Dragway to try his new toy out. His new toy is a 72 Camaro. Yesterday was the first passes made on the car. The best run so far is 10.29/ 132mph. He hopes to have it in the high 9s soon. The motor is a 582 cu inch big block running on pump gas no power adders. The car is totally street legal also!

No, he does not like the way the big wheel small sidewalls ride. He loves to drag race. He has a 69 Camaro SS that runs 11,s, and a 12 second 55 150. The 55 would look awsome with a set of 18" wheels because it is mini tubbed.
